Solid-phase enrichment

Determination of organolead metabolites of tetraalkyllead in urine can be carried out after solid-phase enrichment and end analysis using reversed-phase HPLC with chemical reaction detector and by LC-MS (thermospray127). The chemical derivation consists of conversion to the dialky Head form, as shown in reaction 1, followed by complex formation with 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (11) and spectrophotometic measurement at 515 nm128. 

Solid phase enrichment of enantiomers was faster in the presence of glass beads than in their absence at given temperatures (99% ee compared to 58% after 6 days). The data show that the emergence of a state of solid-phase single chirality for aspartic acid may be achieved in near equilibrium process even in the absence of mechanical stirring.

Ion-exchange methods are based essentially on a reversible exchange of ions between an external liquid phase and an ionic solid phase. The solid phase consists of a polymeric matrix, insoluble, but permeable, which contains fixed charge groups and mobile counter ions of opposite charge. These counter ions can be exchanged for other ions in the external liquid phase. Enrichment of one or several of the components is obtained if selective exchange forces are operative. The method is limited to substances at least partially in ionized form. 

When a first column of a very short length (and therefore a low selectivity) is used (this is especially suitable for multiresidue methods), we talk about an on-line precolumn (PC) switching technique coupled to LC (PC-LC or solid-phase extraction (SPE)-LC). This is particulary useful for the enrichment of analytes, and enables a higher sample volume to be injected into the analytical column and a higher sensitivity to be reached. The sample is passed through the precolumn and analytes are retained, while water is eliminated then, by switching the valve, the analytes retained in the precolumn are transferred to the analytical column by the mobile phase, and with not just a fraction, as in the previous cases.

X-ray scattering studies at a renewed pc-Ag/electrolyte interface366,823 provide evidence for assuming that fast relaxation and diffu-sional processes are probable at a renewed Sn + Pb alloy surface. Investigations by secondary-ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) of the Pb concentration profile in a thin Sn + Pb alloy surface layer show that the concentration penetration depth in the solid phase is on the order of 0.2 pm, which leads to an estimate of a surface diffusion coefficient for Pb atoms in the Sn + Pb alloy surface layer on the order of 10"13 to lCT12 cm2 s i 820 ( p,emicai analysis by electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) and Auger ofjust-renewed Sn + Pb alloy surfaces in a vacuum confirms that enrichment with Pb of the surface layer is probable.810... 

The use of ethyl acetate was suggested by Oszmianski and Lee (1990) to wash out phenolics other than anthocyanins. Finally, a relatively pure anthocyanin extract can be removed from the colnmn with acidified methanol (0.1% HCl). Anthocyanin extracts can be enriched in this way by use of solid phase purification, which is especially helpful for diluted samples such as biological samples. Two factors in the nse of these purification techniques are the stability of anthocyanins to the conditions nsed and the ease of anthocyanin recovery from the column. ... 

Exudate collection in trap solutions usually requires subsequent concentration steps (vacuum evaporation, lyophilization) due to the low concentration of exudate compounds. Depending on the composition of the trap solution, the reduction of sample volume can lead to high salt concentrations, which may interfere with subsequent analysis or may even cause irreversible precipitation of certain exudate compounds (e.g., Ca-citrate, Ca-oxalate, proteins). Therefore, if possible, removal of interfering salts by use of ion exchange resins prior to sample concentration is recommended. Alternatively, solid-phase extraction techniques may be employed for enrichment of exudate compounds from the diluted trap solution (11,22). High-molecular-weight compounds may be concentrated by precipitation with organic solvents [methanol, ethanol, acetone 80% (v/v) for polysaccharides and proteins] or acidification [trichloroacetic acid 10% (w/v), per-... 

Water solubility, dissociation constant(s) and n-octanol/water partition coefficients allow one to predict how an analyte may behave on normal-phase (NP), reversed-phase (RP), or ion-exchange solid-phase extraction (SPE) for sample enrichment and cleanup.

Applications The potential of a variety of direct solid sampling methods for in-polymer additive analysis by GC has been reviewed and critically evaluated, in particular, static and dynamic headspace, solid-phase microextraction and thermal desorption [33]. It has been reported that many more products were identified after SPME-GC-MS than after DHS-GC-MS [35], Off-line use of an amino SPE cartridge for sample cleanup and enrichment, followed by TLC, has allowed detection of 11 synthetic colours in beverage products at sub-ppm level [36], SFE-TLC was also used for the analysis of a vitamin oil mixture [16]. 

In this design, on-column sample enrichment is incorporated into the sheathless interface (Janini et al., 2003). A miniaturized solid-phase extraction (mSPE) cartridge, made of reversed-phase material, was attached to the CE capillary near the injection end as shown in Fig. 16.1.
